I don't think anyone needs to shed tears for Monsanto.
As I understand it, Monsanto has been very effective in forcing farmers to use their seeds as these seeds are now considered licensed property. You don't just simply buy Monsanto seeds, you have a service agreement with Monsanto whereby you must purchase new seeds every planting season rather harvesting seeds from last years crop. Doesn't sound like a big deal, but these terms have enabled Monsanto to sue farmers whose land happens to be inhabited by crops grown from Monsanto seeds. So if your neighbor has an agreement with Monsanto, and through the powers of wind, water, animals, etc. his seed takes hold on your land and proliferates, as Monsanto's genetically engineered seeds tend to do, you can now be sued for some kind of seed piracy and forced to pay for their product. How can you decide to switch to another seed provider when your liable for whatever Monsanto plant may thrive on your land.
At least that's what I recall from Food Inc, or some other documentary.

You also mite want to hold off on attaining that other cup of cofy,(especially if it's what's causing you to post this incessant drivel) since by the deffanishuns that you posted posted, you would be obtaining another cup of cofy.
And yet you still think that was an accidental misuse rather than a parting shot. Fine work.
Sorry for the mix-up, aspiring sociology student. Gave you too much credit there for a moment. Thanks for clearing that up.

um, there's this perception that the media leans to the left. whether or not that's true, at the very least blind foolery isn't part of the equation, no?
jw
Does the existence of some right leaning media refute the idea that, overall, mainstream media is largely left leaning?

1.
a projecting or protruding part.
2.
the state or fact of jutting out or protruding.
3.
a causing to jut or protrude.
4.
the act, process, or result of projecting.
This is from a dictionary. I was speaking of psychological projection. Not to mention you can use the root word in the definition of one of it's sub-categories. I thought that placing the word project in quotation marks might tip you off to this fact.
See my above post. If you had bothered to attain a dictionary yourself and look up the word projection before you posted this you wouldn't look like such an ass. I do have a steady job by the way. considering you guys seem to be able to post all hours of the day I could deduce that you may not.
You can also read a little more about psychological projection here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychological_projection
Now is there any other information you need spoon-fed to you?
Had you bothered to crack a text book or even copied and pasted the definition from wikipedia then you might not have offered the most worthless definition of psychological projection ever recorded in the English language. Open that DSM and regurgitate something useful aspiring psych student, its not that hard. Or you could just drop that act all together as I, and I'm pretty sure everyone else at PPP, are already very familiar with the term.
You continue to assume that you have a monopoly on everyday words and concepts. If you had any ready comprehension skills whatsoever you'd see that the elementary factoids and opinions you express are already clearly understood. Instead you jump in to the middle of a discussion regarding the causality of job creation to clear up the differences between attain and procure, as if there was any confusion to begin with. Not only do you attempt to condescend to individuals who are clearly more intelligent than yourself, but you can't even do it competently as your "lessons" are rife with typos and demonstrate only the most superficial understanding.
Do yourself a favor and go back to page 2. You totally miss the boat with your first post, sprinkle in a kindergarten explanation of the agg demand model for reasons which are inexplicable given the context of the thread, totally whiff again on my sarcastic reply, admit you know nothing about basic economic theory, again whiff on sarcasm, then you prove that you have no idea what attain and obtain mean*, all in order to demonstrate for a second time that you have no idea what DC Tom was getting at and no clue about causality.
I think I'll go attain another cup of coffee, idiot.
*at·tain/əˈtān/
Verb:
Succeed in achieving (something that one desires and has worked for): "he attained the rank of admiral".
Reach (a specified age, size, or amount): "dolphins can attain remarkable speeds in water".
ob·tain/əbˈtān/
Verb:
Get, acquire, or secure (something): "an opportunity to obtain advanced degrees".
Be prevalent, customary, or established: "the price of silver fell to that obtaining elsewhere".

In fairness, the article said he spent 7 hours at the golf club, not on the golf course, which is nowhere near as unreasonable as people would make it out to be.
I understand it's bad optics and adds to the narrative of his idiocy, but it's simply a waste of time criticizing him for this.
Which is why I responded with a joke. I couldn't care less if Obama spent 10 hours on the course and another 8 at the club bar on his vacation. Seems pretty normal to me.

not sure what that means

It is so attractive to solve issues by changing the siuation, such as:
"Lower the Cost of the Shoes, and the Kids will have to Rob less to buy them".... but that assumes the facts the the kids will not find some toher consumer products that gives the stature or Rep.... the solution probably lies in early community intervantion and solid home life.
"The Banks are Greedy and Deceiftful, Take their Power away"... until you relize they're banks and the goal is to make as much money as they can, and they own your elected officials... if you don't like the big banks, pull you money out... or find a way to use their money to make youe life better or you richer...
"Ban fast food, people will weigh less"- people can still be fatties if they eat salads all day.... just use exhorbinant amounts of cream dressing and wash it down with soft drinks...the solution is motivating people to get off their fat asses and walk to work, or do any kind of moving...
but rarley do price controls and reglating good and bad acheive the desired result.
My in-laws are white as clouds, but they make the stupidest purchases that cotinue to leave them broke and depndent and depressed.

That's because you're smart and they're dumb. See how that works?
Isn't that a bit racialist?

You try making a foursome on the Capitol without including at least one whore monger. The bigger problem here is that it takes these ass clowns 7 hours to play 18. No matter which way cut it that's unacceptably long. Kim Jong Il shot a 14 on that course in just under 45 minutes.

Did yuo ever stop to consider that your post is a post?
Huh? Whats' a post?

If he's such a master of the obvious, why did he accuse me of not being able to define socialism immediately after I provided the book definition of socialism?
But he's not an idiot. I'm just projecting.
Perhaps if you could procure, which means to get through the process of procurement, a steady job, you could then afford to obtain a dictionary, which is a resource containing words and their corresponding definitions, and through which atain vast, which means great, big, or large, knowledge like bigfatbills. Also, water is a wet substance with the properties of water.

I'm not quite sure where you're getting angry. There could be some projection going on here. (that's where you "project" your own feelings onto another person to help you deal with them. Anger is usually the most common, guilt is a close second)
Or perhaps you are under the impression that pressing the "stupid" button works. (pressing a button is where you do something to try to manipulate the feelings or behavior of another person for your own amusement or to feel powerful.) An example of this might be when my 4 year old pokes my 2 year old in the back seat of the car for no other purpose than to piss her off. My 9 year old seems to have outgrown this phase of her development. You may want to try some therapy to see what caused you to get hung up here.
I've never encountered a human being with such mastery of the obvious. Projection is projecting?? Really?? Way to use the underlying word in the definition. Can't wait for your next lesson.

Maybe if kids were taught that education and hard work are more important than possessions and getting rich quick...
What? That doesn't sound right. If you're going to post nonsense at least provide a youtube video supporting it.

Expect a mod to remove most of this post since it's a copyright infringement to post an entire article.
It's not hard to make proper wings. The most common pitfall is undercooking them. Most places want to get the food out as fast as possible. They have to learn to find the sweet spot between crisp and overcooked. The sauce us just melted butter and Frank's.
PTR
Or failing to pat the wings dry before frying, or using frozen chemical pumped garbage which drops the temp of the oil pretty drastically and almost ensures you won't be able to crisp the skin. Like you said, its not hard at all to cook a perfect wing, which is why I'm amazed at some of the garbage you can get even in WNY. Judging by the inedible crap I got from Wings Over Rochester the other day, it seems you don't have to go to Mass to get Boston style wings.

Explain those derivatives again?
What's the difference between atain and procure, other than one is a word and the other is gibberish?

Tuck your pants into your socks. I know it sounds strange but you'll thank me later.

You might actually be too stupid to post on this board.
Without BigFatBillsFan who will interrupt discussions of merits of supply side vs Keynesian economic theory and underlying principles to remind us all that equilibrium is still where supply meets demand? Who will let us know the net effects of increasing/decreasing one input in a bi-variable equation? Who will set us straight on the distinctions between apples and oranges and cats and dogs? Can we really have adult conversations without being bombarded with fun facts from the 8th grade?

Why wouldn't you be all for canceling the F-22 it's government spending isn't it? I was trying to break everything down to a kindergarten level for you since you have about 0 understanding of economy and how it works. I don't have access to the derivatives they are using for their current or future sales projections so I can't really give you one can I? The whole point of this thread is that volts cost 250,000 a piece. The point of my response is that the more cars sold, the less they cost per unit. Get it?
Cue the insults in 3, 2, 1...
Do you honestly think that bolded was not understood by all at first glance of the article? You seem to think that if the obvious isn't explicitly stated then it must be foreign or unknown to the rest of us.

Cool your jets, you two. This thread is for mocking OWS'ers. There's plenty of others where you can mock each other.
Guess that makes lybob an OWSer.

In the case of Solar power and wind power, yes, it is just pulled from the sky. We can also use wave rams to generate electricity from the motion of sea water. Not to mention geothermal energy.
How many times does it have to be said that the government put money behind the technology also. The idea that we can mas produce and use electric cars. The more electric cars sold, the less money behind each one.
Wow I can't believe that GM missed aggressive sales projections, it's not like that's ever happened before...
We can also harness the power of 1 million hamsters running on 1 million wheels, but we don't. We burn coal for the vast majority of our energy because its cheap and efficient, and currently the only way we can meet our energy needs at a reasonable cost. Solar, wind, hydro and thermal account for a small percentage of our total energy production, which means electricity is anything but clean.
So, all other things equal, increasing the denominator in the division equation yields a lower result? Really? Are you f@#$ing sure? What next Newton, will you edify the board as to how increasing one variable in multiplication leads to a higher product?
Missing projections by a ton is a big deal, considering the underlying investment decision was based on said projections. But I'm sure with your mastery of long division that you already knew that.
-
Environmentally friendly? Yes because electricity is just pulled form the sky. It's like the electric buses in SF that have a sign on the back that says "Zero Emissions Vehicle." Yeah at this end.
I'm sure those buses are powered exclusively by the electricity generated from windmills, solar and hydro plants. And aren't you forgetting about "clean coal" too?
